I did the level 1 workout & 8 extra positions yesterday, really concentrating on my legs (those overalls will fit like I want them to yet!) I also got in an extra liter making for 5 liters of water!!! (YAY!!!!) I rarely drink anything else these days. Boy, I've been checking out my arms lately & they're looking pretty buff these days! I have to admit I'm really surprised & very happy with O! & I'm not sure I will do Body Flex anymore at all; every day I say "Wow! What a great workout; that was fun!" I didn't realize I said that every day until this morning when my son told me "Mama, you say that every time you do your Oxycise!" Usually I bag out on exercise after about a month of doing it regularly, but now I'm entering my second month of regular exercise & I'm not slowing down so far! I like the way I feel & I LOVE the way I'm looking. Plus, now I've found a support group & it makes things a lot easier; the daily challenges even keeps things interesting & fun! Thanks to all of you for being here! :)

I've lost 7 pounds and about 15 inches with Oxycise! 11 of those inches came off last week alone! That was amazing!! Your program is so wonderful Jill! I have tried Body Flex and hated it. I was in so much pain from the positions and the breathing that I thought I would die. I'm glad I took the chance and ordered your program. Your program is so different and 100% better than Body Flex. I have nothing against Greer Childers except I've wondered if Body Flex really worked for her at all. I know she plugged the Health Rider a few years back and said that it was what got her in shape. Who Knows! All I know is that your program is the real thing and I want to thank you for developing it!
Thank you!

Over the years I have tried many other programs with very little long-term success, some with no success--if I lost weight, it came back with a few extra pounds. In fact, when I told one of my sisters that I was starting Oxycise! she said, "It's just another flavour of the month. You've tried the Jane Fonda workout, aerobics, the stepper, Body Flex, etc., and now this. Well, let me know if it works." Well, IT DOES! I am amazed at how simple it really is and how little effort and time it takes. It's hard to believe something this easy works! This is something I KNOW I can stick with!

I already had Body Flex, but I wouldn't do it hardly ever because of the noise and positions.
I used Body Flex for about one year and lost 12 pounds and three inches off my waist. No matter how diligent I was I couldn't lose any more inches in my lower abs. I started Oxycise about three weeks ago and lost the last stubborn weight and inches I wanted to lose. I feel energized and really toned. Thank you so much for a great system!

I'm so caught up in the perils of entertaining three children that I'm always short on time. That's one of the main reasons why I'm so grateful for Oxycise. I never have to use lack of time as an excuse for not getting in a workout. Fifteen minutes can always be found to Oxycise, no matter what else is going on.
I first heard about Oxycise on QVC. I was already doing Body Flex, but wasn't seeing the results I had hoped for and also it was aggravating my back problems. I thought the price was certainly reasonable so I ordered. What a wise move on my part. My results were almost immediate. I was losing inches before I was even doing all thirty postions. It took me a full month to perfect Oxycise, but I stuck with it and it has rewarded me for my perseverance. Within seven weeks I reached my goal. I can now wear a bathing suit to our swim club and not feel like someone who just had a baby last June. I look and feel pretty darn good for being the mother of three children. Thanks to Jill, and to Oxycise.
I am back to being a size 5/6 after gaining 70lbs. during all three of my pregnancies. I did no other form of exercise while using Oxycise those seven weeks, just so I could be sure Oxycise was what deserved the credit for my success. It is!!!

I have been using Oxycise! for one week, and I have lost 3 1/2" and 4 pounds - with little effort. I am going to incorporate the Oxycleanse and your healthy eating style this week and see what happens. I am really excited about this product. I was using Body Flex, with fairly good results, but this is so much easier and fun to do. Plus I was at a plateau with Body Flex for over a month and Oxycise! helped me to break out of my plateau.
Thanks again for such a wonderful product and terrific support system.

I discovered the Oxycise program on QVC and was skeptical as many people seem to be at first. I had done Body Flexing and have nothing bad to say about that program. I just found Oxycise fit my schedule much better. It took me a while to catch on to the breathing, that college degree didn't help! But in all seriousness, I feel wonderful. I have lost 6 inches in my waist and 14 inches in all. I still have a long way to go but have gone from an 18 to a 16. Thank you once again for making this an enjoyable journey toward better health.

I found out about Oxycise! a few weeks ago. I was in the grocery store checkout and noticed an issue of Woman's World with a cover story about breathing away the pounds. I bought the issue, checked out the article and remembered my Body Flex tapes I bought several years ago. I got them out again and the breathing really energized me, but the positions were painful. I found the Oxycise! website, read the Success Stories and ordered the Level 1 material. I got my Oxycise! tapes yesterday. I watched and practiced the Basic Breath over and over. I have not done the 15 minute workout yet, but just going along with the Instructional tape made a difference. I have had slightly bad posture all my life, and after working with the video, I realized that I was standing up straight without consciously trying. I was able to get up this morning without hitting the snooze and have been doing a rep or two throughout the day to keep me energized. I am also sitting up straighter in my chair at my desk.
I have been gaining weight slowly over the last few years. I seem to gain about 20 lbs at a time and then maintain for long time. Right now, I'm at 210 pounds. I am thankful that I am tall (5'10"), but being this heavy, I feel about 6 inches shorter than I am. I have always had trouble finding pants that fit right because of my height, but with the added bulk around my hips, I lose a couple inches in length even in the tall sizes. I hate the way I feel and look (stretch marks are soooo grotesque!!). I pray that this program is what I have been looking for. I am so glad I didn't buy a treadmill! I will keep you posted with my measurements as I go along. I really appreciate this website. I will be using it for encouragement along the way. Thank You!

I just received the Oxycise videos and I am so thrilled. I took a chance on ordering them because I had done another program (Body Flex) on and off for 2 years without any results other than feeling better. I have an apple shape, have had a C-section, and other surgery, so my abdomen is really a problem. I even have a hard time buying clothes because of extra weight in my lower torso.
Here are my results after only 4 days! (I actually only did Oxycise! on 3 out of the 4 days.)
lost 8 lbs.
4" lower abs
2" waist
2" hips
2" rib cage
0 thigh
I couldn't be more excited. Oxycise is a workout, but I don't feel like I'm stressing myself. No one can pay me to take my tapes away. I will be doing this for the rest of my life.

I had been on Body Flex for 4 weeks doing it twice a day for about three weeks and I saw no results, only one inch in my thighs. I was upset. ... I found this website and thought ok I'll give this a try.
Well I got it last Friday and studied the program on Saturday and started doing Oxycise! on Sunday. Today is Wednesday and I had to measure just to see if it was working.....here are the results:
4 inches off my chest,
1 off my waist
4 off my hips
and 2 on each thigh!!!!
That's a total of 11 inches in 4 days.

I am a size 4 (5"6", 105"), so I'm pretty thin. I've been using Oxycise for 4 weeks and have tried Body Flex before too. I like them both, but Oxycise is definitely my favorite. I just bought new jeans yesterday, and they're a size 2, so even if you don't have weight to lose (and I know that I don't!) then you'll still see a tightening and defining of muscles which will make you appear smaller although you might not lose weight. My size 4's are really baggy on me now. Keep breathing, and you'll get there!
Debbie
I just recieved my tapes and I just want you to know that I love them. I used to faithly do aerobics 6-7 days a week. I also dabbled in weight training. When I went back to work full time this all diminished gradually.
I want you to know that I also ordered the Body Flex System. Even though it has more glitz the Oxycise program by far has had more research and thought put into the workout. Her workout is too easy and doesn't feel like it's working much. I could really feel Oxycise!!
I know that I will buy the second level after I have accomplished the first. Jill is wonderful, really down to earth. I love her gentle but effective approach.
Thanks for everything.

I had been doing Body Flex for two weeks, and now have done two weeks of Oxycise. I didn't take my body measurements when I first began either program. Basically I don't have a lot of inches or weight to lose; I just wanted to tone up and feel better and maybe get rid of some cellulite if that's possible. (Also, I'm going to my 30-year high school reunion in July and it would be nice to be looking good if you know what I mean!) Both programs offer the flexibility to do them when you are traveling and can be done in any room so they are convenient. You don't get all sweaty and exhausted from doing either routine. I actually look forward to doing the Oxycise workout and so I don't postpone it or dread it. Always I feel energized after doing the exercises...it's not a depleting type of workout...it sort of "restores" you physically and emotionally.
I was enthusiastic about the Body Flex program when I began it. But now that I have been doing Oxycise for a couple weeks, I honestly feel it is far superior. It is remarkably simple and certainly easy enough for anyone to master if they focus on it. I wouldn't go so far as to say it is easier than Body Flex because I thought that program was very easy (kind of gross though to watch since you give this guttural sounding exhale that Gabriella and David couldn't stand to watch and listen to!!). The only sort of goofy position you get into with Body Flex is a modified pretzel type of position but I am familiar enough with yoga to be comfortable with that. But Body Flex seemed almost "too easy" for me and I didn't really feel I was getting a complete workout. I just feel that I am doing a more complete, well-thought-out workout with Oxycise.
For the first 3 or 4 days I had to really focus and concentrate on the breathing to do it properly and I felt that it took a certain amount of coordination to do it properly. So in that way, I think there is a little more investment of energy or a greater initial start-up time to the Oxycise program. But I think there is a better payoff with the results and what you are doing for your body. I feel totally relaxed when I am done with the workout.
The benefits that I have noticed so far are:
* An improvement in my posture. I've never had very good posture and now I see a definite improvement without any concentration on my part. I think that my abdominal muscles have strengthened so I just naturally sit up straighter and walk with a better posture.Suzanne
After doing the Body Flex and getting no results, I tried to contact the individual that does the program with no luck. I called the 1-800 number and got someone on the phone that was although kind they couldn't answer my questions. I have always gotten a response from you or your staff in the few brief times I've asked for one.
I have only been using Oxycise for a week and although I don't lose weight or inches easily, due to hypothyroidism I gave your program a try this week. I am to say the least very impressed. The toning I receive with this program is wonderful and the great feeling I get afterwards is worth it. I am an RN who works night shift and does alot of commuting from my home to work (three hours) while I am away from home I've taken this program with me and used it at work during my break time and after I get up from sleeping during the day (and in the car YUREEKA!) I actually feel that I am doing something right.
Although the inches aren't really coming off yet, I know they will, I am determined to stick with this, and I can't say that about a lot of programs I've tried, and I've tried a few. I also have high intraocular pressure which has risen up and down since I was 20 and I have to be careful with any type of exercising I do. (That was another reason I had to abandon the Body Flex). I feel so good when I finish this program that I had to go over the tapes again to see if I could do it again, and you know what? It got easier and yes I still felt great.
...Also, by the way my intraocular pressure went down to normal range this week. I've had to modify the positions a little bit to ease the strain but I feel wonderful despite the modifications. I'm ready for Level Two!
